Labor Day is starting to piss me off (and I'm one of those union-thug types you read so much about on Fark). There's a higher proportion of laborers going to work today than on any other day of the year! Somebody's got to ring up all the hot dog buns for people important enough to get the day off.

I guess car thieves are more like independent entrepreneurs than wage-labor, though, so I'm okay with them working today.

Where do you think you are? Europe? This is America! We'll work very long and hard for very little and we'll like it! Now shut up and eat your hot dog you goddamn commie!

I worried a lot less about car theft when I drove a stick shift. Seriously, nobody else I knew could drive it. It's a lost art. Unfortunately, it gets harder and harder every year to find a decent stick shift if you prefer a sedan or SUV. I find that most of the ones being sold are only available in the stripped down models of cars. That's so sad. I miss driving a stick.
